And I think it is clear he made a deal with Google, with or without monetary compensation I do not know. Please slap me with proof that I'm wrong, I so wish to be wrong.

How Chinese Zyngas are worse? Their games can be down right unplayable unless you pony up real money to purchase virtual goods like coins and potions and whatnot and they come up with new ways to nickle and dime their existent users every d

It's a dare, he is saying it's not worth it. But think for a second, what if he offers the same deal on the iOS? Definitely worth it, monetary wise.

Ask TeleNav's revenue split between iOS and Android. iTunes is the mothership of all podcasts, while on iOS podcast lacks serious features still it works and that's most people need.

To understand how "grassroot" Chinese internet companies make money, one does not need to look much further than Zynga. They spam low production value wares or blatantly clone the hottest startup in the valley, engage in ethically questiona

Yes and no. Some of the inventories translate in to parts and bolts sat in the warehouses of Apple's suppliers. But more of the inventory reduction comes from precise demand prediction and great control of the whole chain from production to

Funny I did swimmingly in racial test showing no bias at all when the exit questions reminded me of my strong fear for big black man in a dark alley. Then again, I'm Chinese, which means I'm a bit racist against all non-chink people.

Sigh, I really want to and should respect you but I'm such an asshole I simply could not resist the fun. It is entirely my fault. And in death Jobs equals Hitler, ramen.

Dave Winer certainly does not belong to the group you described. If anything he is too disenchanted, knows a lttle bit too much, and is too sure of his own version of the lore.

It was certainly playful and fun and seriously one of a kind in the laptop category to this day. But, Ive kinda let his design overwhelm the product and the design was a lot less timeless comparing to his similarly themed first gen iMac. I

Of course, Cars 2 is the low point in Pixar's streak but overall still able to capture an audience not to mention tons of toys sold. I understand Lasseter's point and given his fixation over the concept I'll just accept the fact it is a big

Yeah, sometimes we get the toilet seat cover iBook and Cars 2, but by and large having a creative guru under nobody else's thumb seems to work well for both companies.

Well then next time Apple introduces a new design, he better hauls his ass up on the stage to receive the applauds. I personally would love that.

To put it in a slightly hyperbolic yet entirely honest way: I want Apple (or brand of your choice) to make decisions for me; to tell me what I want and what I want more; to assure me my decisions are unequivocally right and indeed, mine. In

I generally like ribbon in Office and think MSFT has some great ideas here, like moving the info pan to better fit the wide screen reality. But at this stage it looks so very very bad, and remind me the open office mouse with 30 buttons.

I can sympathize with you. But even suspect credit fraud is also "purchase first" "warn later". Refusing to let a new device purchase anything without a thorough check is a ridiculous idea. But I do agree that as the iTunes store grows, the
